LinuxQuestions.org - ANNOUNCE: Bootstrap-based directory indexes for nginx

Can't remember if I'd announced this before. Anyway, here's a useful project that I did a few years ago, that works well on Slackware:

https://github.com/duganchen/ngx-responsiveindex

Clone it, and then build nginx from the SBo SlackBuild with:

Code:

ADDMODULE=/path/to/ngx-responsiveindex ./nginx.SlackBuild

And then in nginx.conf, replace

Code:

autoindex

with

Code:

responsiveindex

Now your directory indexes will be a table if you have a wide screen, and a list if you have a narrow screen.

For example, here's a block to serve up user-directories at ~/www:

Code:

location ~ ^/~(.+?)(/.*)?$ {

    alias /home/$1/www$2;

    responsiveindex on;

    responsiveindex_exact_size off;

}
